Kreayshawn Directs Red Hot Chili Peppers Video

Earlier this year, the young Oakland rapper Kreayshawn became the center of about a million online authenticity debates when her "Gucci Gucci" video went viral, and she promptly signed a contract with Columbia. But Kreayshawn also has a history of directing music videos for Bay Area rap figures like Lil B. As MTV reports, Kreayshawn is putting her film-student backstory to good use, as she's directing a new music video for, of all people, the Red Hot Chili Peppers.According to MTV, Kreayshawn will direct the clip for "The Adventures of Rain Dance Maggie", the first single from the forthcoming Chili Peppers album I'm With You, which is out August 30 on Warner Bros. Just close your eyes and imagine how that's going to look. I have no fucking idea.

Later this summer, she'll venture out into the world for a quick U.S. tour that'll feature a stop at Philly's Popped! Festival and headlining shows in a few other major cities. She also dropped a new track today, "Rich Whores", on her website. We've got her dates below, as well as her "Gucci Gucci" video.
